Browns take on the Ravens in Weeks 2 & 11 of the 2025 regular season
The Cleveland Browns will host the Baltimore Ravens in Weeks 2 & 11 of the 2025 NFL season. Now that this year’s NFL schedule has been officially released, we can break down each matchup and each team for the upcoming season.
The defending AFC North champion, the Ravens had a mostly quiet offseason overall, retaining their key free agents while adding pieces to help QB Lamar Jackson shoot for another MVP season. A close loss to the Buffalo Bills in the second round of the playoffs shows how difficult the AFC is to get through for Baltimore.
Retaining OT Ronnie Stanley and signing OT Joseph Noteboom and WR DeAndre Hopkins are the “big” moves this offseason, but CB Chidobe Awuzie is a sneaky good add to the Ravens. On schedule release day, Baltimore also just gave RB Derrick Henry a big extension to keep their core intact.
